Hello Aaron! If the solution is evident to you, can you perhaps make a pull request on Salsa (https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/MySQL/patches) or even upstream?
Also note these issues where upstream has tweaked how symbols are published and versioned: * https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-13619 * https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-13589
